Good Medicine', KU Musical, Will Portray Murphy's Dream, Decision Of Chancellor
By PHIL NEWMAN
When "Good Medicine", speech and drama department musical, opens for a four night stand on Wednesday, Oct. 24, some parts of the production will have a familiar ring.
The program was originally written as "Cum Laude" by Prof. Allen Crafton of the speech department in 1939 as a preview of the University's 75th anniversary.
According to Professor Crafton, the original revue was put together by himself with help from students and other faculty members. The song "Onward Spirit of Kansas" was written for "Cum Laude" by Professor Crafton and a former student, Jack Laffer.
"Good Medicine" is a re-vamped, modernized version of the old show.
According to William Conby, instructor in speech, the name was changed for two reasons. He said that, "first, the show, with its musical comedy numbers is actually
'good medicine' for anyone who attends. Second, because Chancellor Franklin Murphy, whom the show's theme centers about, has been affiliated with the school of medicine."
The production is a series of 21 scenes tied together in a central theme, and divided into two parts.
In the first part, Dr. Murphy is portrayed as having had a dream in which he is asked to take the reins of the University. The second part shows Dr. Murphy, in deliberation of whether he should take the position, being taken on a tour of the campus. The tour through the various departments is conducted by Fred Ellsworth, Alumni association secretary.
